My friend runs something like this. The basic premise is to buff the spirt weapons up with might and immobilise your foe for the kill with your scepter. With 15 stacks of might they do a lot of damage.

You can run with any runes you want and the 3rd skill is up to you. Basically Spirit Hammer and Spirt Sword are the basis of your utilities but the Shield is nice vs ranged opponents and JI vs mobile ones. Hold the Line is also nice for the 3rd skill.

I like running runes of mercy with this so while my hammer and sword are pestering people I rez my team mates back up and get them into the fight.

Empower as it gives might to both allies and spirit weapons acts as a nice heal using AH.

I call if Fire and Ice. Run it with a Barb amulet for extra health if the zerk isn’t working out. If you’re going for the Barb amulet, I’d suggest swapping the runes over to Ice as well.

The base idea behind this build is alright however it has some problems.
1: Very little condition removal.
2: Most of your damage is linked to spirit weapons & if they die (which can happen very easily) your screwed.

1. is a weakness of spirit weapon builds, number one can be fixed rather easily via traits, sigil & utility if you so choose.

Yes it is! You need help vs a condition class but it is quite strong at taking out or neutralising glassy classes in a team fight.

You can run purging flames in your last spot, grab purity and the signet heal for conditions. You might even run purity sigil on your scepter. The build I gave you is just the base.

I was fiddling with it last night and improved it quite a bit. Still got one or two kinks to work out. I find this one works a little better for me than my friend’s build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQNArdSlsApIoFCxKI8DRx+Ql1YUVAg9PcEB6lzwHA-TZBHABAcIAM4JA0y+DJXGosTAAA
Purging Flames is a good alternative to the Bane Signet depending on what foes you see. I still like shelter over signet heal, but you might want that for a little condition removal. Glacial Heart is a good option over Defender’s Flame, but I was facing at least 1 ranger and the combo of DF + Focus + Aegis + Shelter really caused them a lot of issues. Had a lot of success dueling people on points and helping to rid the point of glass cannons. Oddly, you usually lose a duel to a Med Guardian, due to Monks Focus, but it is prolonged and close… both people who fought and beat me commented in Map Chat that it was a tough fight and close. If you get the 4 on the Hammer at the right time it can mean victory.
